Corn Flakes Production Cost Breakup By Corn Flour

Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024  | From $ USD

This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of corn flakes production from corn flour. The process begins by processing the corn flour obtained from corn seeds and preparing a mixture of it with the dry and wet ingredients (such as sugar, flavoring agents, salt, water, and certain preservatives) all together in a screw extruder. The mixture is subjected to sequential heating, cooling, mixing, and shearing in the barrel. The extruded pellets are then passed on to prepare flakes in the rolling unit. The prepared flakes are then dried, roasted, cooled, and sent for packaging.

Feedstocks for Corn Flakes

Corn flakes are mainly obtained by using corn seeds as their key ingredient. There are different factors that may cause variations in the acquisition of corn in the downstream industries. Factors related to its market dynamics mainly include the production of corn, supply of corn in the market, stability in the demand, and market prices. These factors play a major role in determining the procurement of corn on a large scale. Moreover, other factors such as the harvesting period, logistics, trade, and governmental policies can also have a strong impact on the overall procurement of corn and cornflakes in the global market.

Our report consists of an extensive and comprehensive analysis of the corn flakes industry tailored as per your requirement.
